Controversial city preacher, James Maina Ng’ang’a, known for his outspoken and unconventional methods, recently stirred headlines again with an unorthodox approach to addressing singleness within his congregation at Neno Evangelism Church.

During a recent sermon, Ng’ang’a took an unconventional step by parading unmarried members of his congregation onto the pulpit, encouraging them to actively seek life partners.

In a video that has been making rounds since january 29, Ng'ang'a is heard saying, "Nilikuwa nafikiri tuite wale wamama ambao hawajaolewa waje hapa mbele waonane na hawa wanaume."

With both groups assembled on the pulpit, Ng’ang’a prompted them to interact and explore potential connections that could lead to marriage.

This unusual initiative aimed to facilitate introductions and foster relationships among church members.

He encouraged them to bring offerings during the service, emphasising the importance of seeking divine intervention in their quest for companionship.

This isn’t the first time Ng’ang’a has addressed the marital status of his congregation. Last year, he issued a six-month ultimatum to single members, urging them to either find partners or consider leaving the church.

His bold ultimatum sparked debate and garnered attention both within and outside the congregation.
